According to the study of 27,000 children across the country, the children most likely to end up on the naughty step are those named Alexandra, Esther, Faith, Lydia, Nicole, Logan, Harrison, Liam, Jacob and Leo. Meanwhile, the best behaved kids are called Sophie, Jessica, Olivia, Emily, Grace, Jack, Joshua, Harry, Oliver and Charlie.
